RIP. :(

Even considering his age this sad naws was a bit of a shock.
Goodbye Mr. Scaramanga. :notworthy:

Very sad day - Ron Moody (Fagin in "Oliver") also toddled off today :(

Favourite Christopher Lee story: legend has it that he was being interviewed on Parkinson or similar, and the host said, "So, you were once in military intelligence. Can you tell us about it?"
Lee leans in to the host and asks, "Can you keep a secret?"
"Yes," says the host.
Lee looks him straight in the eye and says, "So can I."

A class act, a huge presence, and while he's probably not overly fond of the role there's part of me hopes that they bury him in that long black cloak with the red lining. Hammer House of Horror used to scare me silly when I was a nipper.

RIP but what a fantastic life. A pity about Police Academy: m*****n to Moscow but that only serves to underline his work ethic, I guess.

EDIT - :lol: at the auto-edit of the movie title - it wasn't intentional to choose that movie or it's title.

He was a badass. And while it's sad, I think 93 is a respectable age to go.
